This is so helpful. This has been one of our biggest challenges since adopting the parcel fabric. Thank you for putting this together! ... View more

When you use the "Save As" option currently, it creates a new .aprx file in the directory that you chose, but that .aprx file is still connected to everything in the old project. It does not have a folder connection to the new folder, it does not have a new file geodatabase (it is still connected to the previous project), and it does not get a tool box. In my opinion, this defeats the purpose of "Save As". When I use that option, I am looking to use my existing map to branch off into a new version, but retain my layouts, project data, etc..  It would make way more sense to me if "Save As" copied your project geodatabase and toolbox, as well as created a new folder connection to the new location rather than being completely tethered to the old project. Re-configuring all that takes so much time, I might as well have just started a new project from scratch.  ... View more

Did you confirm if it was the anti-virus that was causing it to fail? ... View more

Yep. I knew it would. I would like that too. I've looked all over for a "model AGOL/portal" example and have yet to find anything useful.  ... View more

I almost guarantee that there has been an enhancement logged. They have just been closed with "Not in product plan", and this one probably will be as well. When I asked an ESRI software engineer about this at the ESRI UC a few years back, their response was that due to the way the back end of AGOL/Portal works, it isn't feasible for them to implement multiple folder levels. They have allegedly looked into it due to the popularity of the request, but do not believe it is technically feasible to implement.  ... View more

Awesome! Glad it was helpful! ... View more

Same! It's handy when it works but at least half the time for me it doesn't work immediately.  ... View more

I've had this happen to me as well, and no amount of tinkering would get it to read. ESRI seriously needs to release some guidance on the format that the COGO reader expects for the different measurement types.  ... View more

Does this still work for you? It does hide some fields, however the problem is that it hides fields that have data in it it as well. Here is a sample popup from our data: Here is a screenshot of the selected feature's attribute table:   As you can see, there are several additional attributes that are populated, but are not shown in the popup.  ...

Odd. It should output a table that looks like this in the console: There are a couple of things you can try. If you change the ITEM_TYPES variable to 'ITEM_TYPES = ["*"]', it will scan ALL items in your organization. Granted, it will take a good bit longer, but it will scan everything.  Another option is to run the script below. This will basically scan the target organization and list all items with it, as well as what their "ITEM_TYPE" is. You can then use that to fill out the "ITEM_TYPE" variable in the original script. It will also output an Excel file named "AGOL_Item_Types.csv" to your default directory. Hope this helps! Let me know if I can help in any way!

I can't believe that I didn't think to try that. Updating the source that way repaired the issue! What's odd is that I definitely had the itemID correct, because it is the same now as it was before. Must have just been a weird bug. Either way, I will definitely use this method from now on. Thank you for your help! ... View more

Thank you for posting this. This issue was driving me crazy but this worked for me.  ... View more
